AMES, Iowa (AP) — Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton planned to unveil a plan Sunday aimed at combating climate change that includes revisions in the tax code to promote renewable energy.
In Iowa, the nation’s second-leading wind energy producer, Clinton said people are “just not paying attention” if they don’t acknowledge climate change.
Clinton said she supported renewing the wind energy tax credit and getting other tax incentives “fixed” to promote renewable fuel.
Though Clinton hinted that under her plan the coal industry would face changes, she said the federal government would help the industry.
